Micro.blog expanding photo servers in Europe: manton.org

@manton this is a delightful bit of UI.

@manton thanks for this.

@manton I love it. Thanks

@manton thanks again for these new options. I checked the box for the first time and my progress bar is stuck at zero progress. .. What should I do? — (edit: nevermind, I think it finished)

@manton With Love from Europe. ❤️

@manton Fantastic, thank you!

@manton holy smokes this is killer! Thank you so much!

@manton This is great but when I try to check the box it’s grayed out and unselectable 🤔

@thisness I think @manton said somewhere that hosting in Europe is currently only available if you use your own domain (so not a *.micro.blog subdomain). That’s probably why the option is greyed out for you.

@roelio Ah, ok. Thanks

@manton My site became unavailable on my iPhone after switching to the EU servers, but it turned out to be a DNS caching problem. Once I switched from wifi to mobile, it got the right IP address, and the site came available again. If I wasn't in hurry, I could just wait 24 - 48 hours to let the cache clear itself.

Still, something to be aware of, right?

@manton Amazing! Currently doing the photo transfer here! Thanks for that Manton and team! 😊

@manton amazing! Something I hadn’t even considered but is surely right in sync with the state of the world.

@manton 👍

@manton Nice work!

@manton Thank you. Taking advantage of this straight away.

@manton great 🙏

@lzbth I've confirmed it's all good for your site. I think I have an issue where it takes too long sometimes to "start" the progress bar.

@manton yes, it stayed at zero for a long time. Everything seems to be working now. Thanks for double-checking👍🏻
